Olga Georgieva's works are autobiographically motivated; she puts herself in the position of the observer and mirrors social relationships. Her drawings almost exclusively depict people, but also capture clear geometric space, by exerting their power over the gallery space. A room evolves into a container for interpersonal memories. Anonymous figures interact and become acquainted. A red thread turns into a wire, a fence, the border of her own "regime" of reasoning. The color red symbolizes the desire for transgression and at the same time the fear of separation from the laws of reason. An individual's decisions are governed and determined by the image of this boundary. Breaking this "regime" and crossing the border means that a new frontier will appear immediately as the individual does not want to leave the field of reason. Georgieva is known for her performative live drawings and multimedia installations. She has exhibited in a variety of art institutions as well as in public spaces.

Born 1986 in Varna, Bulgaria Georgieva graduated in 2005 from the School of Fine Arts “Dobri Hristov”. After moving to Vienna she continued her studies at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, graduating in 2012 with an MA. She has exhibited in a variety of art institutions as well as in public space and received various awards and prizes such as the 1st prize in the 8th International competition “Europe at School”, the 2nd Hahnemühle prize in 2009 or the Red Carpet Award for Young Art in 2012. She lives and works in Vienna, Austria.
